Meditation Script:

Find a comfortable place to be in your body, seated or lying down. Focus on your

breath. As you breathe in, notice where in the body you may be holding tension.

As you breathe out, let go, relax whatever you can. Let’s engage the imagination.

Close your eyes. Imagine you are floating in space, your body housed and

protected within a space suit. Breathe.

Feeling here a sense of weightlessness, imagine opening your eyes to see swirls of starlight in the midst of darkness as you direct your gaze up and around you. Then

looking down, imagine seeing the halo edge of Earth’s atmosphere. Continuing to

rise above the earth, you watch the planet become smaller and smaller the

greater the distance between you and it. Looking out into the distance, you see

the glow of sun, that fiery light, and the glow of the planets around it. The

further you rise the more distant the light until there is no light but you.

As you continue to breathe in this most distant

place in space, imagine the sensation of warm glowing light gathering at the

center of your heart. Feel your heart beating, hear the evenness of each gentle

thump. As the light gathers, imagine suddenly feeling the most settled sense of

calm you’ve ever felt, the warmth and light moving like breath and blood

through the body. Suddenly, you watch beams of light move through and out your

fingers, through and out your toes. Here, in the midst of the darkness of

space, your body beams with light, like a star in the night. Slowly you begin

to feel the pull of the Earth. You float lightly into the Earth’s atmosphere, through

cloud and sky and gently landing on solid ground in the space where you are meditating.


Bring your attention to the firmness or softness of the ground beneath you,

supported. Notice the air on your skin. Observe the sounds in the room around. Bring

movement to your body. Wiggle your fingers. Wiggle your toes. Gently blinking

open your eyes, moving into your day with lightness and light.
